Safety & Health

Safety Data

Our silicas are fine, light powders and care should be taken to avoid inhaling them. The materials are neither silicotic nor acutely toxic, but safety requires sensible handling to minimise the creation of dust. Face masks should be worn during handling and exhaust ventilation used if available. Because these products are highly adsorbent they may have a drying effect on the skin and routine precautions such as the wearing of gloves and overalls are desirable.
